Shortcuts disappear

My application has a shortcut to both it's executable and to a PDF that is installed.

If I create a shortcut to an "Installed file" the shortcut works just fine, but as soon as the PC reboots, the shortcut on the desktop is gone.

I read the posts here and created the shortcut to an "External File" but then the shortcut did not even appear on the desktop.

Thank you for any ideas
Bogdan

Re: Shortcuts disappear

Hi,

Could you please try installing your package on other machines?

If the problem still persists please send me the .aip file and a verbose log file to support at advancedinstaller dot com so we can investigate the problem.

Please note that the target for a shortcut to an External File should contain at least a property.

Regards,
